While other 50% unsure, managing stress can not only become difficult, but the behaviors that are picked up may become unhealthy habits and they had health problems,Poor sleep which result in increase risk of stroke, cancer, and changes in DNA expression.In stress youngsters start overeating which obviously puts a person at risk of obesity, which can lead to a slew of other problems, including heart disease and diabetes.
